Villa Cerna "Primocolle" Chianti Classico Riserva 2015 Review
For an affordable Chianti under $20 you can’t go wrong with this wine. The tannins are young and grippy, and the aromas of cherry fruit, red currant floral notes and earth tones all dance around a good solid acidity. The wine is balanced, but not crazy complex, and that’s ok due to the price. It is a great Chianti Classico to bring to a party.
